  • to oUR SHaREHolDERSWe successfully completed our landmark merger on July 1, 2007, creating a well-positioned global growth company. The merger of The Bank of New York Com-pany, Inc. and Mellon Financial Corporation has been a strategic and financial success for our shareholders, while expanding the services we offer clients and creat-ing new opportunities for our staff around the world.

    In 2007, your companys total shareholder return was 19.4 percent, significantly outperforming the S&P 500 return of 5.5 percent and placing us in the top five of widely-held financial institutions around the world with market capitalization of over $50 billion. In addition, we achieved the following:

    Generated 17 percent revenue growth and 29 percent pre-tax earnings growth (FTE) in our businesses, led

    by securities servicing and asset management*

    Increased our global presence, with non-U.S.

    revenue reaching a new high of 32 percent in the

    fourth quarter on an operating basis, up from

    27 percent in the prior year quarter*

    Achieved strong investment performance and

    were top-ranked across our businesses in client

    satisfaction globally

    Completed 25 percent of our expense synergy target, surpassing our published goals

    Generated tangible return on equity of 46 percent*

    Maintained strong capital ratios and debt ratings

    a Global Growth company The new company adopted aggressive goals and quickly put plans in place to achieve them. The Bank of New York Mellon is dedicated to outperforming around the world in our two core businesses: asset management and securities servicing the latter including global custody, depositary receipts, corporate trust, clearing, and shareowner and broker-dealer services. To us, this means we will continue to expand internationally, provide the best client service and innovative products and generate superior investment performance. We aspire for first-quartile stock perfor-mance over time compared to our peers. We are well positioned to achieve these goals given the expected long-term growth rates and globalization of the financial markets, as well as our scale, client focus and strong capital base.

    Our goal is to achieve superior revenue growth relative to our peers and maintain margins that are competi-tive though not the highest, because we plan to keep reinvesting to maintain our edge. Realize, too, that as a predominantly fee-based company, our growth is not dependent on using our capital to grow our balance sheet. We work to deploy capital to accelerate our long-term growth rates. We have a history of making accretive acquisitions with attractive returns and reinvesting our remaining excess capital annually in share repurchases.

    * Growth rates and the fourth quarter 2006 percentage of non-U.S. revenue are on a pro forma combined basis. Growth rates, percentages of non-U.S. revenue and tangible return on equity exclude merger and integration expense, intangible amortization and other items as detailed in our fourth quarter of 2007 Quarterly Earnings Summary document. The fourth quarter 2007 percentage of non-U.S. revenue also excludes the fourth quarter of 2007 collateralized debt obligation write-down ($200 million pre-tax). On a GAAP basis, the 2007 tangible return on equity was 42 percent.

The graph reflects total shareholder returns for The Bank of New York from Dec. 31, 2006 to June 29, 2007 and for The Bank of New York Mellon from July 2, 2007 to Dec. 31, 2007.

    Highlights of our Business BNY Mellon Asset Management Assets under management are now over $1 trillion, an increase of 12 percent* over the prior year, with net flows of $69 billion. The Asset Management investment boutiques continued to deliver strong investment returns for clients, and made significant strides in product innovation, rapidly expanding our alternatives offer-ings, including 130/30 and market-neutral strategies. BNY Mellon Asset Management is a top five institutional asset manager in the U.S., with leading positions in the corporate and public pension, Taft-Hartley and endowments and foundations markets, while its Dreyfus affiliate is a major mutual fund player.

    In 2007 we continued our strong international growth, with revenue from non-U.S. clients accounting for 38 percent of overall revenue. We became the first foreign asset manager to receive regulatory approval under QDII as a sub-adviser to China Southern Fund Management Co. Ltd., agreed to establish a joint venture fund management company in China with Western Securities and acquired Brazil-based ARX Capital Management, a leading asset manager specializing in Brazilian equity and alternative investment strategies.

    BNY Mellon Wealth Management In Wealth Management, we combined the two legacy organizations to become one of the top ten wealth managers in the U.S., with a presence in 14 of the top 25 domestic wealth markets. During 2007 we achieved strong fee growth and maintained industry-leading client satisfaction scores.

    BNY Mellon Asset Servicing Asset Servicing has been remarkably successful in attracting new business and maintaining client loyalty during a time of transition. During 2007 assets under custody and administration grew by 13 percent* to $23.1 trillion, an industry record. Revenues and profits grew at double-digit rates. We are very proud of the fact that post-merger win and retention rates were better than each legacy company had enjoyed, as clients continued to view us as a quality leader. We received the highest number of Top-Rated recognitions and Best in Class awards in the 2007 Global Custodian Survey.

    Brand and culture go hand in hand. Inside the company we put in place the building blocks for a corporate culture that supports our brand and institutionalizes our commitment to be #1 in client service. To set expectations for how we will behave, we introduced our values of Client Focus, Trust, Teamwork and Outperformance. We have a strong starting point, as reflected in an all-employee survey, which showed a broad commitment to these core principles.

    We set yet another ambitious goal: top-quartile employee engagement compared to peers. In other words, we want our people at all levels to be interested, involved and inspired. Its just good business. It leads to better service and performance and makes it easier to attract and retain the best people. We expect it will take a couple of years to achieve this goal but we are already using internal and external measures to gauge our progress.

    In December we purchased the remaining 50 percent stake in ABN AMRO Mellon Global Securities Services B.V. This joint venture enjoyed great success outside North America in providing custody and related services. Our full ownership has increased our opportunities in the fastest-growing regions of the world.

    The Bank of New York Mellon Issuer Services Issuer Services addresses the needs of equity and fixed-income issuers. In addition to achieving record earnings and maintain-ing number one market shares in corporate trust and depositary receipts globally and in shareowner services in the U.S., we enjoy a strong reputation for quality. In 2007 we were named trustee and administrative service provider of the year by Opal Financial Group and trustee of the year by International Securitisation Report magazine. In addition, we were rated the top firm for overall client satisfaction among large transfer agents according to an independent satisfaction survey conducted by Group Five Inc. and recognized by J.D. Power for providing An Outstanding Customer Service Experience in shareowner services.

    The Bank of New York Mellon Clearing & Execution Services Clearing & Execution Services experienced strong growth with record financial results. Pershing LLC continued to extend its market leadership as a provider of clearing, financing and custody services for introducing broker-dealers and registered investment advisors.

    The Bank of New York Mellon Treasury Services Treasury Services achieved strong earnings growth over the prior year. In addition, we ranked number one in 17 categories in Global Investors 2007 Foreign Exchange (FX) Survey, including Best FX Service Overall. Working Capital Solutions was voted number one for cash management relationships, bank operations, customer service, implementation and e-commerce in the 2007 Greenwich Cash Management Quality Index.

    People, Partnerships and Performance This fall we launched our new brand identity using the logo you see on the cover. Its simplicity and elegance reflect our focus on institutional and high-net-worth clients. To build awareness and familiarity of our brand, we launched a new advertising campaign focused on the qualities that distinguish us in the market: the strength of our people, the partnerships we forge with our clients and our ability to consistently deliver superior performance to all of our constituencies, including our shareholders.

    2008 Business priorities Although the economic environment is challenging, the people of your company entered 2008 energized and focused on a set of clear business priorities:

    Outperforming in every market we serve. Better service plus better performance equal faster growth. Clients will stay with us, do more business with us and recommend us with great enthusiasm. Its a simple formula that works.

    Maintaining the highest ethical standards with best-in-class compliance programs and an unwavering commitment to doing the right thing.

    Making our company a place where talent globally wants

    to work. We are creating a diverse, inclusive and

    supportive culture where everyone has the opportunity

    to contribute, develop and excel.

    Achieving a timely and seamless integration. We are working hard to make the integration a non-event from a client perspective. We finished 2007 well ahead of our pre-tax expense synergy target, driving toward a goal of $700 million per year by the end of next year. We have also identified opportunities to generate incremental revenue synergies of $250-400 million per year by 2011.

    The exceptional people of this company are working hard to out-perform our peers and exceed your high expectations. We want to sincerely thank them for a terrific year during a period of substan-tial change and uncertainty. Our performance is a real testament to the quality of our teams and their ability to focus on what matters most our clients. We also offer our gratitude to our directors for their collaborative approach and the support they have offered in a significant time of transition, and to the shareholders of both legacy companies for their continued show of confidence. We have a great future ahead of us. Thank you for joining us.

    Yours sincerely,

    Thomas A. RenyiExecutive Chairman Chief Executive Officer

  • Introduction

    On July 1, 2007, The Bank of New York Company, Inc. (The Bank of New York) and Mellon Financial Corporation (Mellon) merged into The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (The Bank of New York Mellon or BNY Mellon), with BNY Mellon being the surviving entity. For accounting and financial reporting purposes the merger was accounted for as a purchase of Mellon for a value of $17 billion. The Bank of New York Mellons financial results for 2007 include six months of the combined companys results and six months of legacy The Bank of New York only. Financial results for periods prior to 2007 reflect legacy The Bank of New York only.

    The merger transaction resulted in The Bank of New York shareholders receiving .9434 shares of The Bank of New York Mellon common stock for each share of The Bank of New York common stock outstanding at the closing date of the merger. All legacy The Bank of New York earnings per share and common stock outstanding amounts in this Annual Report have been restated to reflect this exchange ratio. See page 62 for additional information.

    We expect to realize annual expense synergies of $700 million by 2010 and our targeted run rate for revenue synergies is $250-$400 million by 2011. Merger and integration costs to combine the operations of The Bank of New York and Mellon were approximately $550 million in 2007 with

    approximately $355 million recognized as expense and $195 million recorded as goodwill. Total merger and integration costs are currently expected to be approximately $1.325 billion.

    The Bank of New York Mellon is a leading provider of financial services for institutions, corporations and high-net-worth individuals, providing superior asset and wealth management, asset servicing, issuer services, clearing and execution services, and treasury services through a worldwide client-focused team. We have more than $23 trillion in assets under custody and administration, more than $1.1 trillion in assets under management and service $11 trillion in outstanding debt.

    Throughout this Annual Report, certain measures, which are noted, exclude certain items. We believe the presentation of this information enhances investor understanding of period-to-period results. In addition, they reflect the principal basis on which our management monitors financial performance.

    Overview

    Our businesses

    The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (NYSE: BK) is a global leader in providing a comprehensive array of services that enable institutions and individuals to manage and service their financial assets in more than 100 markets worldwide. We have a long tradition of collaborating with clients to deliver innovative solutions through our core competencies: asset and wealth management, securities servicing and treasury services. Our extensive global client base includes a broad range of leading financial institutions, corporations, government entities, endowments/foundations and high-net-worth individuals. One of our two principal subsidiaries, The Bank of New York (the Bank), founded in 1784, is the oldest bank in the United States. Our other principal subsidiary, Mellon Bank, N.A. (Mellon Bank), was founded in 1869. Both institutions have consistently played a prominent role in the evolution of financial markets worldwide.

    BNY Mellons businesses benefit from the global growth in financial assets. Our success is based on continuing to provide superior client service, strong investment performance and the highest fiduciary standards. We seek to deploy capital effectively to our businesses to accelerate their long-term growth and deliver top-tier returns to our shareholders.

    Our long-term financial goals are focused on achieving superior total returns to shareholders by generating first quartile earnings per share growth over time relative to a group of 12 peer companies. Key components of this strategy include: providing the best client service versus peers (as measured

    through independent surveys); strong investment performance (relative to investment benchmarks); above median revenue growth (relative to peer companies for each of our businesses); competitive margins; and positive operating leverage.

    Based on the growth opportunities in our businesses, we expect that an increasing percentage of our revenue and income will be derived outside the U.S.

    As measurements of efficiency, over time we expect to increase the level of fee revenue per employee and increase our pre-tax margins.

    We believe that our businesses are compatible with our strategy and goals for the following reasons:

    Demand for our products and services is driven by market and demographic trends in the markets in which we compete. These trends include growth in worldwide retirement and financial assets; the growth and concentration of the wealth segments; global growth in assets managed by financial institutions; and the globalization of the investment process.

    Many of our products complement one another. We are able to leverage sales, distribution and

    technology across our businesses benefiting our clients and shareholders.

    The revenue generated by our businesses is principally fee-based.

    Our businesses generally do not require as much capital for growth as traditional banking.

    We pursue our long-term financial goals by focusing on organic revenue growth, expense management, superior client service, successful integration of acquisitions and disciplined capital management.

    In 2007, we established a Tier I capital target of 8% as our principal capital measure. We also revised our secondary targeted capital ratio from 5% of tangible common equity to 5% of adjusted tangible common equity. The change from tangible common equity to adjusted tangible common equity reflects the impact of the merger with Mellon and associated goodwill, intangibles and related deferred tax liability. The goodwill and intangibles created in the merger have no economic impact but reduce tangible equity.

    Results of Operations (continued)

    For a description of discontinued operations, see Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

    Certain amounts are presented on a fully taxable equivalent (FTE) basis. We believe that this presentation allows for comparison of amounts arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources and is consistent with industry practice. The adjustment to an FTE basis has no impact on net income. In addition, results for 2007 include six months of the combined companys results, while the results for the first half of 2007 and all prior periods include legacy The Bank of New York only.

    Summary of financial results

    In 2007, we reported consolidated net income of $2.039 billion and diluted earnings per share of $2.18 compared with net income of $2.847 billion and diluted earnings per share of $3.94 in 2006. Net income in 2006 included net income from discontinued operations of $1.371 billion and diluted earnings per share of $1.90, primarily from the sale of our Retail Business.

    In December of 2007, we consolidated the assets of our bank-sponsored conduit, Three Rivers Funding Corporation (TRFC) which resulted in an extraordinary after-tax loss of $180 million or $0.19 per share. See pages 16 and 17 for a further explanation of this consolidation.

    Income from continuing operations before extraordinary loss in 2007 was $2.227 billion and diluted earnings per share was $2.38, compared with $1.476 billion and $2.04 per share in 2006.

    Results for 2007 and 2006 include merger and integration expense of $404 million and $106 million pre-tax, respectively. Excluding these amounts, diluted earnings per share from continuing operations was $2.64 per share in 2007 and $2.14 per share in 2006.

    Performance highlights for 2007 include:

    Assets under management, excluding securities lending assets, amounted to $1.121 trillion at Dec. 31, 2007 compared to $142 billion at Dec. 31, 2006. Assets under custody and administration amounted to $23.1 trillion at Dec. 31, 2007 compared with $15.5 trillion at Dec. 31, 2006. Both increases primarily resulted from the merger with Mellon;

    Asset and wealth management fees totaled $2.060 billion in 2007 compared with $545 million in 2006. The increase was primarily due to the merger with Mellon as well as net new business and higher equity market levels;

    Asset servicing revenue was $2.350 billion in 2007 compared with $1.401 billion in 2006. The increase was primarily due to the merger with Mellon, as well as a higher level of securities lending revenue and increased client activity related to market volatility and net new business;

    Issuer services revenue was $1.560 billion in 2007 compared with $895 million in 2006. The increase was primarily due to the acquisition of the corporate trust business (the Acquired Corporate Trust Business) of J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., strong growth in Depositary Receipts revenue, and to a lesser extent, the merger with Mellon;

    Revenue from foreign exchange and other trading activities was $786 million in 2007, compared with $415 million in 2006. The increase reflects the merger with Mellon, record customer volumes, the favorable impact that resulted from increased currency volatility in the second half of 2007 and a higher valuation of the credit derivatives portfolio;

    Net interest revenue was $2.3 billion in 2007, compared with $1.499 billion in 2006. The increase was primarily due to the merger with Mellon, as well as growth in client deposits and wider spreads on investment securities;

    Securities losses totaled $201 million in 2007 primarily reflecting a $200 million loss on collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) recorded in the fourth quarter, and

    Noninterest expense was $8.116 billion in 2007 compared with $4.688 billion in 2006. The increase resulted from the merger with Mellon, the purchase of the Acquired Corporate Trust Business, as well as $404 million pre-tax of merger and integration expense and $319 million pre-tax of intangible amortization expense in 2007, partially offset by the disposition of certain businesses in the BNY ConvergEx transaction and $175 million of merger-related synergies generated in 2007.

    2006

    In 2006, we reported net income of $2.847 billion and diluted earnings per share of $3.94 and income from continuing operations of $1.476 billion and diluted

    The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation 5

    Results of Operations (continued)

    earnings per share of $2.04. This compares to net income of $1.571 billion and diluted earnings per share of $2.16 and income from continuing operations of $1.343 billion and diluted earnings per share of $1.84 in 2005. Discontinued operations for 2006 included a net after-tax gain of $1.371 billion, or diluted earnings per share of $1.90.

    Adjusting for the impact of merger and integration expense ($106 million pre-tax), diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for 2006 were $2.14 compared with $1.84 for 2005.

    Performance highlights for 2006 include:

    A 13% increase in securities servicing fees; A 12% increase in net interest revenue; A 9% increase in foreign exchange and other

    trading activities, and A 20% increase in asset and wealth management

    fees.

    On Oct. 1, 2006, we purchased the Acquired Corporate Trust Business from and sold our Retail Business to, JP Morgan Chase.

    On October 2, 2006, we completed the transaction resulting in the formation of BNY ConvergEx Group. BNY ConvergEx Group brought together BNY Securities Groups trade execution, commission management, independent research and transition management business with Eze Castle Software, a leading provider of trade order management and related investment technologies.

    In 2005, we reported net income of $1.571 billion and diluted earnings per share of $2.16. Income from continuing operations was $1.343 billion, or $1.84 of diluted earnings per share.

    Securities servicing fees were up 10% from 2004. Net interest revenue increased $183 million compared with 2004. Asset and wealth management fees and foreign exchange and other trading activities also rose from the prior year. We repurchased 5 million net shares in 2005.

    During 2005, we formed strategic alliances to penetrate faster-growing markets in France, Germany, the Nordic and Baltic region, Japan, Australia, and India. We also continued to expand our market

    presence in high-growth areas such as hedge fund servicing and collateral management, while extending our capabilities in the rapidly growing area of alternative investments.

    Revenue overview

    The vast majority of BNY Mellons revenue consists of fee and other revenue, given our mix of businesses, with net interest revenue comprising the balance.

    Fee and other revenue represented 80% of total revenue, on a fully taxable equivalent (FTE) basis in 2007, compared with 78% in 2006.

    Since fee and other revenue constitutes the majority of our total revenue, we discuss it in greater detail by type of fee in the following sections, as well as in the business segments review section beginning on page 17. There we note the specific drivers of such revenue and the factors that caused the various types of fee and other revenue to increase or decline in 2007 compared with 2006. The business segments discussion combines, for each business segment, all types of fee and other revenue generated directly by that segment as well as fee and other revenue transferred between segments under revenue transfer agreements, with net interest revenue generated directly by or allocated to that segment. The discussion of revenue by business segment is fundamental to an understanding of BNY Mellons results as it represents a principal measure by which management reviews the performance of our businesses compared with performance in prior periods, with our operating plan and with the performance of our competitors.

    Net interest revenue comprised 20% of total revenue, on an FTE basis, in 2007 compared with 22% in 2006. Net interest revenue is generated from a combination of loans, investment securities, interest-bearing deposits with banks and federal funds sold and securities purchased under resale agreements.

    Fee and other revenue

    Fee and other revenue totaled $9.031 billion in 2007, an increase of $3.692 billion, or 69%, from $5.339 billion in 2006. The increase in revenue in 2007 was primarily driven by the merger with Mellon, the full-year impact of the acquisition in October 2006 of the Acquired Corporate Trust Business and stronger performances in securities servicing, asset and wealth management, foreign exchange and other trading activities and treasury services. Partially offsetting the growth in fee and other revenue was the disposition of certain execution businesses in the October 2006 BNY ConvergEx transaction and securities losses.

    Securities servicing fees

    The increase in securities servicing fees compared to 2006 reflects the merger with Mellon and the Acquired Corporate Trust Business, as well as strong organic growth in securities lending revenue, Depositary Receipts and broker-dealer services. These results were partially offset by the BNY ConvergEx transaction. See the Institutional Services Sector in Business segments review for additional details.

    The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation

    Asset and wealth management fees

    Asset and wealth management fees increased from 2006 primarily due to the merger with Mellon, net new business and improved equity markets. See the Asset and Wealth Management Sector in Business segments review for additional details regarding the drivers of asset and wealth management fees. Total assets under management for the Asset and Wealth management sector were $1.121 trillion at Dec. 31, 2007, up from $142 billion at Dec. 31, 2006. The increase resulted from the merger with Mellon and net new business. Net asset inflows totaled $55 billion in 2007 resulting from $70 billion of money market inflows partially offset by $15 billion of long-term outflows.

    A large category of Asset and Wealth management fees are from managed mutual funds generated in the Asset Management segment. These fees are based on the daily average net assets of each fund and the basis point management fee paid by that fund. Managed mutual fund revenue was $637 million in 2007 compared with $10 million in 2006. The increase resulted from the merger with Mellon.

  • Results of Operations (continued)

    Performance fees

    Performance fees, which are reported in the Asset Management segment, are generally calculated as a percentage of a portfolios performance in excess of a benchmark index or a peer groups performance. There is an increase/decrease in incentive expense with a related change in performance fees. Performance fees totaled $93 million in 2007, an increase of $58 million compared with 2006, reflecting the merger with Mellon. As a result of the turbulent market environment in 2007, performance fees were impacted by a lower outperformance on certain alternative and quantitative strategies.

    Foreign exchange and other trading activities

    Foreign exchange and other trading activities revenue, which is primarily reported in the Asset Servicing segment, was $786 million in 2007, an increase of $371 million, or 89%, compared with 2006. The increase was due to the merger with Mellon, record customer volumes due to increased activity of the existing client base, new clients, and the favorable impact that resulted from increased currency volatility in the second half of 2007. Other trading activities increased reflecting a higher valuation of the credit derivative portfolio caused by the widening of credit spreads.

    Treasury services

    Treasury services, which is primarily reported in the Treasury services segment, includes fees related to funds transfer, cash management, and liquidity management. Treasury services fees increased $139 million from 2006 reflecting the merger with Mellon, as well as higher client volumes and net new business in the global payments business, partially offset by customers paying with compensating balances in lieu of fees. Earnings on compensating balance deposits are recognized in net interest revenue.

    Financing-related fees

    Financing-related fees, which are primarily reported in the Treasury Services segment, include capital markets fees, loan commitment fees and credit-related trade fees.

    Financing-related fees decreased $34 million from 2006 reflecting a lower level of credit-related activities consistent with our strategic direction.

    Distribution and servicing fees

    Distribution and servicing fees earned from mutual funds are primarily based on average assets in the

    funds and the sales of funds managed or administered by BNY Mellon and are primarily reported in the Asset Management segment. These fees, which include 12b-1 fees, fluctuate with the overall level of net sales, the relative mix of sales between share classes and the funds market values.

    The $206 million increase in distribution and servicing fee revenue in 2007 compared with 2006 primarily reflects the merger with Mellon, as well as higher sales volumes and higher market values of mutual funds. The impact of these fees on income in any one period can be more than offset by distribution and servicing expense paid to other financial intermediaries to cover their costs for distribution and servicing of mutual funds. Distribution and servicing expense is recorded as noninterest expense on the income statement.

    Investment income

    Investment income, which is primarily reported in the Other and Asset Management segments, includes the gains and losses on private equity investments and seed capital investments, income from insurance contracts, and lease residual gains and losses. The decline compared to prior periods principally reflects lower private equity investment income as well as the lower market value of seed capital investments due to the market environment. Private equity investment income was $67 million in 2007, down from $97 million in 2006. This decrease was partially offset by higher returns from insurance contracts and the merger with Mellon.

    Securities gains (losses)

    The $201 million securities loss in 2007 primarily reflects a $200 million loss on CDOs recorded in the fourth quarter. Based on deteriorating conditions in the U.S. housing market, we recognized a pre-tax loss of $200 million ($118 million after-tax) for other than temporary impairment related to these securities. Within our securities available for sale portfolio, we held $179 million (par value $379 million) of CDOs that contained subprime exposure at Dec. 31, 2007.

    Other revenue

    Other revenue is comprised of expense reimbursements from joint ventures, merchant card fees, asset-related gains, equity investment income, net economic value payments and other transactions. Expense reimbursements from joint ventures relate to expenses incurred by BNY Mellon on behalf of joint

    The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation 9

  • Results of Operations (continued)

    ventures. Asset-related gains (losses) include loan and real estate dispositions. Equity investment income primarily reflects our proportionate share of the income from our investment in Wing Hang Bank Limited. Other transactions primarily include low-income housing, other investments and various miscellaneous revenues. The breakdown among these categories is shown in the following table:

    Total other revenue $266 $173 $119

    Other revenue increased from 2006 reflecting the merger with Mellon, higher net economic value payments, a settlement received for early termination of a contract that occurred in 2005 associated with the clearing business ($28 million) and revenue related to transitional services agreements ($15 million). Net economic value payments were $41 million in 2007 and $23 million in 2006. These payments were primarily related to the Acquired Corporate Trust Business, for international customers whose net revenue had not previously been transferred. Upon conversion, revenue from the Acquired Corporate Trust Business clients was reflected in Issuer Services fees and net interest revenue. Asset-related gains in 2006 include a pre-tax gain of $35 million related to

    the conversion of our New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) seats into cash and shares of NYSE Group, Inc. common stock, some of which were sold.

    2006 compared with 2005

    The increase in fee and other revenue in 2006 versus 2005 primarily reflected stronger performance in securities servicing, asset and wealth management fees, performance fees, foreign exchange and other trading activities as well as higher level of investment income and other income. Securities servicing fee growth in 2006 reflected the Acquired Corporate Trust Business and strong organic growth in issuer services, investor services and broker-dealer services. Growth in these areas was partly offset by disposition of certain execution businesses in the BNY ConvergEx transaction and weaker results in our clearing and remaining domestic execution business. Asset and wealth management fees increased over 2005 primarily resulting from acquisitions. The increase in performance fees reflected improved performance fees at Ivy Asset Management Corp. (Ivy). Foreign exchange and other trading activities grew strongly in 2006 versus 2005 reflecting higher customer volumes driven by cross-border investment flows, greater business from existing clients, and favorable market conditions in the first half of 2006. Other trading revenues increased in 2006 as a result of higher fixed income activities partially offset by lower trading revenue at Pershing Group LLC (Pershing). Investment income in 2006 included a realized gain of $11 million from the sale of a private equity investment. The increase in other revenue reflects the gain on the sale of NYSE seats and net economic value payments.

    The increase in net interest revenue from 2006 principally reflects the merger with Mellon, as well as a higher level of average interest-earning assets driven by growth in client deposits, as well as higher deposit balances associated with the Acquired Corporate Trust Business, wider spreads on investment securities and lower bond premium amortization due to slowing prepayments. This growth was partially offset by the required recalculation of the yield on leverage leases under FSP-FAS 13-2, for changes to New York state tax rates resulting from the merger with Mellon ($22 million). We received net economic value payments on the Acquired Corporate Trust Business deposits post-acquisition but prior to the transfer of the deposits to us. These payments, which totaled $41 million in 2007 and $23 million in 2006, are recorded in Other revenue.

    Average interest-earning assets were $111.2 billion in 2007, compared with $75.6 billion in 2006 and $67.7 billion in 2005. The increase in 2007 from 2006 reflects the merger with Mellon, the impact of higher deposits related to the Acquired Corporate Trust

    Business, as well as a higher level of interest and noninterest-bearing deposits driven by higher client activity across our businesses. Average loans were $41.5 billion in 2007, compared with $33.6 billion in 2006 and $32.1 billion in 2005. Average securities were $37.4 billion in 2007, up from $25.9 billion in 2006 and $24.3 billion in 2005.

    The net interest margin was 2.08% in 2007 compared with 2.01% in 2006 and 2.02% in 2005. The increase in the net interest margin from 2006 principally reflects the merger with Mellon as well as a higher average level of noninterest-bearing deposits, wider spreads on investment securities and lower bond premium amortization due to slowing prepayments.

    2006 compared with 2005

    The increase in net interest revenue in 2006 compared to 2005 primarily reflects the impact of higher deposit balances related to the Acquired Corporate Trust Business, higher amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-free balances, as well as the higher value of interest-free balances in a rising rate environment.

    (a) Results for 2007 include six months of the combined Companys results and six months of legacy The Bank of New York only. All other periods reflect legacy The Bank of New York only.

    Total noninterest expense, excluding intangible amortization and merger and integration expense, was $7.393 billion in 2007, an increase of $2.887 billion or 64% compared with 2006. The merger with Mellon, the purchase of the Acquired Corporate Trust Business and the disposition of certain execution businesses in the BNY ConvergEx transaction significantly impacted comparisons of 2007 to 2006. The net impact of these transactions increased nearly all expense categories. Noninterest expense for 2007 also includes the pre-tax write-off of the value of the remaining interest in a hedge fund manager that was disposed of in 2006 ($32 million). Noninterest expense reflects $175 million in expense synergies associated with the merger with Mellon in 2007. We expect to realize annual expense synergies of $700 million by 2010.

    The increase in merger and integration expense and intangible amortization expense compared to 2006 resulted from the merger with Mellon, partially offset by a decrease in merger and integration expense related to the Acquired Corporate Trust Business.

    Total merger and integration costs associated with the Mellon merger are currently expected to be approximately $1.325 billion.

    Staff expense

    Given our mix of fee-based businesses, which are staffed with high quality professionals, staff expense comprised approximately 56% of total noninterest expense, excluding merger and integration and intangible amortization expense in 2007.

    Staff expense is comprised of:

    compensation expense, which includes: base salary expense, primarily driven by

    headcount; the cost of temporary help and overtime, and severance expense;

    incentive expense, which includes: additional compensation earned under a wide

    range of sales commission plans and incentive plans designed to reward a

    14 The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation

  • Results of Operations (continued)

    combination of individual, business unit and corporate performance goals; as well as

    stock-based compensation expense, and employee benefit expense, primarily medical

    benefits, payroll taxes, pension and other retirement benefits.

    The increase in compensation, incentive and employee benefits expense reflects a net increase in headcount associated with the Mellon merger, the Acquired Corporate Trust Business, and organic business growth, partially offset by the BNY ConvergEx transaction.

    Non-staff expense

    Non-staff expense includes certain expenses that vary with the levels of business activity and levels of expensed business investments, fixed infrastructure costs and expenses associated with corporate activities related to technology, compliance, productivity initiatives and corporate development.

    Non-staff expense, excluding merger and integration expense and intangible amortization expense, totaled $3.273 billion in 2007 compared with $1.866 billion in 2006. Non-staff expense was impacted by the merger with Mellon, the Acquired Corporate Trust Business, and the BNY ConvergEX transaction, and also included the following activity:

    A $251 million increase in distribution and servicing expense. Distribution and servicing expense represents amounts paid to other financial intermediaries to cover their costs for distribution (marketing support, administration and record keeping) and servicing of mutual funds. Generally, increases in distribution and servicing expense reflect higher net sales. Distribution and servicing expense in any one year is not expected to be fully recovered by higher distribution and service revenue; rather it contributes to future growth in mutual fund management revenue reflecting the growth in mutual fund assets generated through certain distribution channels;

    An increase in professional, legal and other purchased services, business development, furniture and equipment, software and communications expense resulting from business growth and strategic initiatives;

    An increase in sub-custodian expenses reflecting increased asset values, higher transaction volumes of assets under custody and increased depositary receipts activity, and

    An increase in other expense reflecting organic business growth, the write-off of the remaining interest in a hedge fund manager ($32 million pre-tax), and a $17 million pre-tax loss related to Structured Investment Vehicle (SIV) securities purchased from a commingled Net Asset Value (NAV) fund, which is managed to the specifications of a money market fund.

    In 2007, we incurred $355 million of merger and integration expenses related to the merger with Mellon, comprised of the following:

    Personnel relatedincludes severance, retention, relocation expenses, accelerated vesting of stock options and restricted stock expense ($122 million);

    Integration/conversion costsincluding consulting, system conversions and staff ($136 million);

    Transaction costsincludes investment banker and legal fees, and foundation funding ($67 million), and

    One-time costsincludes facilities related costs, asset write-offs, vendor contract modifications, rebranding and net gain (loss) on disposals ($30 million).

    We also incurred $49 million of merger and integration expense associated with the Acquired Corporate Trust Business in 2007.

    Amortization of intangible assets increased to $319 million in 2007 compared with $76 million in 2006, primarily reflecting the merger with Mellon.

    2006 compared with 2005

    Total noninterest expense increased in 2006 compared with 2005 reflecting increased costs associated with new business, acquisitions, higher pension costs, as well as merger and integration costs. Staff expense was up in 2006 compared with 2005, reflecting higher staff levels tied to new businesses, acquisitions, higher incentive compensation and increased temporary help, partially offset by the BNY ConvergeEx transaction. Employee benefits expense increased compared with 2005, reflecting acquisitions and expenses for incentive payments and pensions. Subcustodian expenses increased in 2006 compared with 2005 reflecting increased asset values and transaction volumes of assets under custody, and increased activity in Depositary Receipts. Professional, legal and other purchased services increased, reflecting the impact of the Acquired Corporate Trust Business.

    The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation 15

  • Results of Operations (continued)

    Merger and integration expenses in 2006 primarily included a loss in connection with the restructuring of our investment portfolio and employee-related costs, including severance. The swap of the Acquired Corporate Trust Business for the Retail Business resulted in a more liability-sensitive balance sheet because corporate trust liabilities reprice more quickly than retail deposits. We sold $5.5 billion of investment securities in the third quarter of 2006 to adjust our interest rate sensitivity.

    Income taxes

    On a continuing operations basis, the effective tax rate for 2007 was 31.0%, compared to 32.0% for 2006 and 32.1% for 2005. The lower effective tax rate in 2007 compared with 2006 reflects the benefit of higher foreign tax credits and lower state and local taxes, partially offset by the phase out of the benefits received from synthetic fuel credits. The slight decrease in the effective tax rate in 2006 compared with 2005 primarily reflected the increased benefit from foreign operations offset by lower tax-exempt income and lower credits from low-income housing.

    The projected effective tax rate for 2008, excluding merger and integration expense, is expected to range between 33.75% and 34.25%. The projected increase in the effective tax rate over 2007 is primarily attributable to the loss of synthetic fuel credits, higher expected pre-tax income, and the adverse effect of the merger with Mellon on New York state and local income taxes.

    We made synthetic fuel and low-income housing (Sections 29 and 42 of the Internal Revenue Code, respectively) investments that generate tax credits, which have the effect of reducing our tax expense. We invested in leveraged leases which, through accelerated depreciation, postpone the payment of taxes to future years. For financial statement purposes, deferred taxes are recorded as a liability for future payment.

    In 2007, our effective tax rate benefited from synthetic fuel tax credits. These credits are related to investments that produce alternative fuel from coal by-products and were impacted by the price of oil. To manage our exposure in 2007 to the risk of increases in oil prices that could have reduced synthetic fuel tax credits, we entered into an option contract covering a specified number of barrels of oil that settled at the end of 2007. The option contract economically hedges a portion of our projected 2007 synthetic fuel tax credit benefit. The contract did not qualify for hedge

    accounting and, as a result, changes in the fair value of the option were recorded in trading income. The synthetic fuel program terminated at the end of 2007.

    Extraordinary (loss) - Consolidation of Three Rivers Funding Corporation (TRFC)

    On Dec. 31, 2007, we called the first loss notes of TRFC, making us the primary beneficiary and triggering the consolidation of TRFC. The consolidation resulted in the recognition of an extraordinary (loss) (non-cash accounting charge) of $180 million after-tax, or $0.19 per share, representing the mark to market discount from par associated with spread widening for the assets in TRFC.

    Strategically TRFC was not core to our focus on high growth global opportunities in Asset Management and Securities Servicing; it had an immaterial impact on our consolidated financial results, generating only $4 million of fee revenue in 2007. Furthermore, the continuing disruption in the capital markets negatively impacted TRFC funding costs and related returns, which was in sharp contrast to our funding costs and balance sheet strength. Consolidation improves the profitability of this portfolio by enabling use of cheaper funding generated by BNY Mellon as opposed to costlier funding generated by TRFC.

    In addition to the extraordinary (loss), the size of the Dec. 31, 2007 balance sheet increased by the full amount of third party commercial paper funding previously issued by TRFC of approximately $4.0 billion. At Dec. 31, 2007, we held $136 million of TRFCs commercial paper, which was eliminated upon consolidation.

    As a result of our excess liquidity, we were able to eliminate the TRFC commercial paper in the first quarter of 2008. Eliminating the TRFC commercial paper is expected to result in an improvement in our adjusted tangible common equity ratio of approximately 10 basis points during the first quarter of 2008.

    Also prospectively, the $180 million after-tax mark to market on the TRFC assets is expected to be accreted into income over the remaining lives of the assets, which are currently projected to average approximately 4-5 years, dependent upon the credit quality of the assets.

    The fair value of TRFCs asset-backed securities portfolio, which is included in our securities available for sale portfolio, totaled approximately $3.5 billion at

    Business segments review

    We have an internal information system that produces performance data for our seven business segments along product and service lines.

    Business segments accounting principles

    Our segment data has been determined on an internal management basis of accounting, rather than the generally accepted accounting principles used for consolidated financial reporting. These measurement principles are designed so that reported results of the segments will track their economic performance.

    The accounting policies of the business segments are the same as those described in Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements except that segment results are subject to restatement whenever improvements are made in the measurement principles or when organizational changes are made. Net interest revenue differs from the amounts shown in the Consolidated Income Statement because amounts presented in the Business Segments are on an FTE basis. In 2007, in connection with the merger with Mellon, business segment reporting was realigned to reflect the new business structure of the combined company. In addition, several allocation methodologies were also revised to achieve greater harmonization with Mellons methodologies. Segment

    data for 2006 and 2005 has been restated to reflect these revisions. The operations of acquired businesses are integrated with the existing business segments soon after most acquisitions are completed. As a result of the integration of staff support functions, management of customer relationships, operating processes and the financial impact of funding the acquisitions, we cannot precisely determine the impact of acquisitions on income before taxes and therefore do not report it.

    We provide segment data for seven segments, with certain segments combined into sector groupings as shown below:

    Asset and Wealth Management Sector Asset Management segment Wealth Management segment

    Institutional Services Sector Asset Servicing segment Issuer Services segment Clearing and Execution Services segment Treasury Services segment

    Other segment

    Business segment information is reported on a continuing operations basis for all periods presented. See Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of discontinued operations.

    The results of our business segments are presented and analyzed on an internal management reporting basis:

    Revenue amounts reflect fee and other revenue generated by each segment, as well as fee and other revenue transferred between segments under revenue transfer agreements.

    Revenues and expenses associated with specific client bases are included in those segments. For example, foreign exchange activity associated with clients using custody products is allocated to the Asset Servicing segment within the Institutional Services Sector.

    Balance sheet assets and liabilities and their related income or expense are specifically assigned to each segment. Segments with a net liability position have also been allocated assets from the securities portfolio.

    Net interest revenue is allocated to segments based on the yields on the assets and liabilities generated by each segment. We employ a funds transfer pricing system that matches funds with

    (a) Period end.

    The merger with Mellon in July 2007, the acquisition of the Acquired Corporate Trust Business and the BNY ConvergEx transaction in October 2006, had a considerable impact on the business segment results in 2007 compared with 2006. The merger with Mellon significantly impacted the Asset Management, Wealth Management and the Asset Servicing segments and, to a lesser extent, the Issuer Services, Treasury Services and the Other segments. The Acquired Corporate Trust Business primarily impacted the Issuer Services segment. The BNY ConvergEx transaction primarily impacted the Clearing and Execution Services segment. The volatile market environment also impacted the business segments in 2007, as reflected by a strong year in securities lending, foreign exchange and other trading activities, as well as clearing and execution revenue. The growth in clearing and execution revenue was offset by the disposition of certain businesses in the BNY ConvergEx transaction. Depositary Receipts were also

    strong in 2007, reflecting business growth and corporate actions. Non-program equity trading volumes increased 17% in 2007 compared with 2006. In addition, average daily U.S. fixed-income trading volume was up 13%. Total debt issuance decreased 6% in 2007 compared with 2006. The issuance of global collateralized debt obligations decreased 12% compared with 2006.

    The changes in the value of market indices impact fee revenue in the Asset and Wealth Management segments and our securities servicing businesses. Using the S&P 500 as a proxy for the equity markets, we estimate that a 100 point change in the value of the S&P 500, sustained for one year, impacts fee revenue by approximately 1% and fully diluted EPS on a continuing operations basis by $0.05 per share. The consolidating schedules below show the contribution of our segments to our overall profitability.
